About Me

My name is Bailee Hicks. I have brown hair and brown eyes. In my spare time i like to ride my horse. My biggest fear are spiders. I love any kind of baby animal. You can normally find me texting or on the computer.



Jute

1. Jute is grown in the Ganges Delta


2. Some items made form jute’s fibers are cloth, cotton, curtains, chair coverings, carpets, area rugs, hessian cloth, twine, rope


3. Jute can also be used in cosmetics, medicine, paints, and other products. Jute leaves are consumed in various parts of the world.


Cell Replication

Step 1: this shows DNA strand before the replication begins.

Step 2: Helicase beings to unzip the DNA.

Step 3: Polymerase begins to start to rebuild the other side of the DNA stand.

Step 4: The sugars and phosphate bonds finish the outside part of the DNA. Now there are two stands of DNA that are exactly the same.


Telomeres-Telomeres are at the end of chromosomes and sometimes appear as stretch like marks. They also keep the different ends of the chromosomes from getting attatched to each other, which would be bad.


Okazaki fragments- is the second type of DNA polymers binds to the other template stand as the double helix
opens, this molecule must synthesize discontinuous segments of polynucieotides called
okazaki fragments.

DNA Ligase- found in non-dividing cells and used to combine the fragments back together.

Telomerase- is an enzyme that adds telomere repeat to the 3' end of DNA strands.

Cancer-cells that always have an abnormal karotype, they can usually grow on much simpler culture mediums,
and have no contact with inhibition.

Transplated Cells- First, cells are removed from a person or animal. They then look for what the cells are lacking and then replace the cells with new ones that will multiply and begin to heal the person/animal. The major problem with this is that the cells die after each use of this process.

Cloning- when you make an exact copy of a DNA strand.

Aging- is the progressive lose of physiological functions that increases the probability of death.
